“The other locations do seem to not leave food sitting out as long as Rob-inson, but I think that’s because there are more people eating there, allowing them to constantly put out fresh food,” said Nick Goike, Robinson Residential employee.

The Milford sophomore said Robin-son Residential has a “friendlier envi-ronment than the other cafeterias on campus, though it’s the least visited.”

CMU students are given the oppor-tunity to choose from four different meal plans, ranging from unlimited

meals per week to a plan of 100 meals per semester.

Brenda Marquardt, residential din-ing director, said on-campus students most commonly purchase the 14 meals per week plan, while off-campus stu-dents and faculty members are more likely to select the $200 All Flex plan.

Payment for student meal plans ties into their room and board payment each year and is spent on food and im-provements to the dining locations on campus.

Last year, CMU spent 10 percent of its overall room and board budget — roughly $4 million — on food purchas-es, Marquardt said.

“Typically equipment utilizes about .5 percent of the overall room and board budget,” Marquardt said. “This varies greatly year-to-year based on current age of the equipment, deferred

maintenance and planned projects.”The four main residential restau-

rants on campus are continuously being upgraded to satisfy the needs of CMU’s student population.

In 2010, Merrill Residential Restau-rant introduced its Southside Deli, which allows customers to choose the meats, cheeses and vegetables that will create their sandwich, as well as whether or not to have it toasted or served cold. The station also includes options of soup and chips as sides.

“Restaurants on campus serve the same food repeatedly, which is why (Merrill) is nicer,” said Clinton Town-ship sophomore Joshua Pierson. “The sandwich station is always a good backup, though there should be a bet-ter selection of vegetarian options.”

Coach Dan Enos goes through

hectic signing day, 8

93 Years of Serving as Central Michigan University’s independent voice

By John ManzoSenior Reporter

Temple and Toledo had the consen-sus as the No. 1 and No. 2 football re-cruiting classes in the Mid-American Conference according to Scout.com and Rivals.com.

The Central Michigan football re-cruiting class was ranked fourth in the MAC by Scout and 11th by Rivals.

Regardless of what the team ranked, head coach Dan Enos announced the signing of 25 new student-athletes to the program Wednesday inside the media room of McGuirk Arena during signing day.

Enos said he wants solid protection from the offensive and good produc-tion from the defensive lines and quar-terback.

“Our staff and I talk all the time about building this football team from the inside-out,” Enos said. “We felt like that was a huge priority going into this

class ... strengthening both those areas, and not for just next year, but for two years, three years and four years down the road.”

The offensive and defensive lines consist of nine new athletes, leaving the remaining two for the quarterback position.

Cooper Rush is a 6-foot-3, 220-pound quarterback from Lansing Catholic High School and expected to be red-shirted this fall, Enos said.

Cody Kater is the only recruit to sign early and be able to practice in spring ball later this semester. He originally was a Chippewa in 2010, de-commit-ted for Cincinnati, but transferred to Grand Rapids Community College last season, leading GRCC to an 11-0 re-cord.

“This thing kind of goes full-circle,” Enos said. “We had him back on cam-pus this year and I talked to Cody in

Concerns about collaboration efforts with the developing College of Medi-cine are growing within the university’s Physician Assistant Program and De-partment of Biology.

As CMED faces a decision based on an upcoming evaluation from the Lia-son Committee on Medical Education for preliminary accreditation, the relat-ed academic departments hope to be better incorporated in the university’s decision-making process in the future.

Ahmad Hakemi, director of the Phy-sician Assistant Program, said he will meet to provide input with CMED of-ficials Thursday, the first time in more than two years.

“Recently, there has been an effort for us to be included to see what’s hap-pening and closely collaborate,” Hake-mi said. “But we were not included at all in the past two years.”

Hakemi said he was once involved in CMED discussions when former Uni-versity President Michael Rao’s admin-istration presided over the university.

“Initially, two and a half years ago, we were included and I attended all the meetings and was very involved,” Hakemi said. “I was one of the first people involved that the university and ex-president Rao talked to.”

Country music artist Rodney Atkins will be the first universi-ty-funded performance of the spring semester, Program Board said Tuesday

The show will be held in Mc-Guirk Arena on March 15. Along with Atkins, country band Glori-ana and artists Tyler Hilton and Jana Kramer will also perform.

Atkins first made his pres-ence known on music charts with “Honesty (Write Me a List),” in 2003, and since released hit country songs “Take a Back Road,” “Watching You” and “If You’re Going Through Hell (Be-fore The Devil Even Knows).”

Special guests Hilton and Kramer are known for their act-ing abilities as well as their mu-sic, and have appeared together on the television show “One Tree Hill,” among other television and movie roles.

Program Board President Paul Sullivan said the lack of country music performances at CMU in semesters past contributed to the artist selection.

“It’s a combination of the facts that we haven’t had a coun-try singer in a while and there has been a demand for country shows,” the Allen Park senior said.

Sullivan said he has heard from many students that they have been waiting for a country art-ist to perform, so he expects fans of the genre to be excited for the show.

“I’m confident that it will be a great show and everyone who attends will really enjoy it,” Sul-livan said.

Although Atkins is popular in the country music world, stu-dents doubt that his perfor-mance will be as well-attended as artists in the past.

Real Food on Campus takes the cake as the most popular resi-dential restaurant location at Central Michigan University when it comes to traffic.

“RFoC in the Towers is the residential restaurant that sees the most traffic, simply because it is the neighborhood with the most residents on campus,” said Aramark Marketing Manager Nikki Smith. “Traffic in all residential restaurants changes year by year based on total number of residents in each of the living areas.”

The other three locations, Fresh Food Company (east campus), Merrill Residential Restaurant (south campus) and Robinson Resi-dential Restaurant (north campus), follow in popularity.

“I don’t think he will be that big of a hit,” said Perry sophomore Cayley Hig-bee. “A rock or pop band would definitely be more successful. I haven’t even heard that Rodney Atkins was coming.”

Battle Creek sophomore Jazmine Price said her friends are excited for the show, but she isn’t inter-ested in attending.

“Personally, I’m not ex-cited at all, but I know some of my friends are cra-zy about him,” she said. “I think it’s good that they’re bringing him to campus though, because it’s im-portant to appeal to every-one and bring a variety of artists.”

Tickets for the show will go on sale Feb. 8 at Ticket Central, located in the CMU Events Center. Ticket prices for the event range from $8 to $17.

“People who enjoy country music will enjoy the concert, I’m sure. I

doubt attendance will be that high, though,” said Kalamazoo sophomore Bri Smith. “LMFAO was a bet-ter choice because it’s pop. That’s all you hear in the dorms. Everybody knows their songs. Country is a

different story.”

Robinson Residential fol-lowed suit in 2011 with the ad-dition of a juice bar, though it was removed because of lack of popularity.

Smith said to replace the juice bar, the Robinson resi-dential staff has plans to re-vamp its deli station in the near future.

RFoC and FFCo each have plans to add unique areas to their restaurants for the 2012-13 academic year to keep the traffic spread out across all four locations, while still keep-ing each unique in its experi-ence.

In addition to the upgrades, the fall 2012 semester will also increase weekend meal op-tions for students by opening FFCo for service on the week-ends.

The east campus restaurant will join RFoC and Robinson Residential as locations avail-able on the weekends.

“I would rate the RFoC as the busiest location because of the weekends being open and the late-night availability dur-ing the weekdays,” said RFoC employee and Macomb junior Kyle Megie. “(Working there) is good in learning the ways of the culinary industry and how to prepare many kinds of foods.”

Campus dining is the largest student employer at CMU, hir-ing 158 employees across cam-pus, on top of another 1,100 student employees.

“I really like that the cafete-rias hire students as employ-ees,” Goike said. “I know that I needed a job to be able to afford school, and although

there is a lot of wait time for only a chance to get hired at a café, it seems to be better odds than other places on campus.”

REPORT CARDCMU’s campus dining pro-

gram earned a B+, according to College Prowler — a site that has graded 706 universities nationwide on their campus-dining programs.

Around the rest of the state, the University of Michigan and Grand Valley State Univer-sity also earned B+. Michigan State University earned an A-, Western Michigan University earned a B and Eastern Michi-gan University earned a C+.

The grading system was based on student ratings of availability, value, ethnic op-tions, late-night options, qual-ity and variety, as well as veg-etarian, vegan and organic options.

One of the most common complaints against Campus Dining at CMU is the variety of food. Each of CMU’s locations follows a three-week cycle of meal options.

“I feel like the locations are all about the same quality in food and while most people think FFoC is better, I think it’s just because of its design,” Megie said. “I have to tip my hat to Fresh Food for its stylish design.”

Aside from the usual cycling menu, Campus Dining sched-ules events each year to shake the schedule up. Some of these events include Be a Kid Again night, Harvest Dinner and the Winter Gala.

Smith said these special events are planned based on students’ feedback of what they’d like to see.

Hakemi said his department is looking forward to collaborat-ing with CMED programs and faculty, and the shared facilities, simulation labs and standard-ized patients will help strength-en the PA program.

“LCME’s standards are very high and if they’re going to allow a medical school to proceed, ex-pectations are very high,” Hake-mi said. “So this means that you’re going to have top people here, the best resources here, the best minds here and the best researchers here, and I really look forward to collaborating, because we have very limited resources in the PA program.”

CMED Dean Ernest Yoder said he expects collaboration efforts to increase after LCME’s evaluation next week. Recently, Yoder said, a significant amount of work has been dedicated to ensuring CMED will meet the re-quired criteria for accreditation.

“There’s a fair amount of work that was going in regard to LCME which did not invite in folks from other departments,” Yoder said.

As the school continues to develop, Yoder said, he envi-sions CMED collaborating with the university’s relevant depart-ments, along with the Mount Pleasant community.

“We view ourselves as a com-munity-engaged medical school and we think there’s going to be very substantial collaboration in-volving all of the departments at CMU, as well as the community we hope to serve,” Yoder said.

Stephen Roberts, chairman of the Biology Department, said the department’s recent endorsement of the Academic Senate’s vote of no confidence against University President George Ross and Provost Gary Shapiro stemmed from issues with CMED, a lack of shared governance and perceived de-valuation of faculty during con-tract negotiations.

“In the deliberations of the motion to endorse the Aca-

demic Senate’s vote of no con-fidence, some Biology faculty members expressed concerns about perceived communica-tion lapses from the administra-tion during the conception and planning of the College of Medi-cine,” Roberts said in an email.

However, Roberts said devel-opment of CMED has already started to make a positive im-pact on the Department of Bi-ology, including the number of students majoring in biology and biomedical sciences.

“There is little doubt that the creation of the College of Medi-cine has played a significant role in the growth of the biology and biomedical sciences majors, which combined have grown from 450 students to 725 stu-dents in the past three years,” Roberts said. “Historically, the Biology Department has had strengths in field and aquatic biology, but in the past decade or so, has also grown and de-veloped strength in cell biology and molecular genetics.”

my office. As I told the coaches, it was like talking to two differ-ent people. It was like talking to a boy three years ago, it was like talking to a man this year.”

Last season, a majority of two-way players, such as wide receivers’ Courtney Williams, Jason Wilson, and running back Anthony Garland, were offen-sive players. Enos said he be-lieves that this season it will be opposite.

“You’re going to see a majority of these guys on the defensive side of the ball,” Enos said of the

players who can play either of-fense or defense in the class.

Those two-way players in-cluded in the 2012 class are Tony Annese, Kavon Fraser, Anthony Scarcelli, Jordan Fields and Brandon Greer.

“Those guys are all two-way players,” Enos said. “They played running back, wide re-ceiver, defensive back and a ma-jority of those guys are going to start on the defensive side of the ball because we made that also a priority.”

Inside-out seems to be a pri-ority Enos and his staff have ad-opted, and in more ways than one.

The Chippewas signed four athletes from Florida last sea-

son, but just one in this class.CMU signed 19 of its recruits

from Michigan and the rest from Illinois, Indiana and Florida.

“We go inside-out,” Enos said of recruiting. “Our local areas are the state of Michigan, North-ern Indiana, Chicago and Wis-consin. We have nine coaches out in those areas, and we cover them.”

Enos then elaborated that if the staff is not satisfied after evaluating the local areas, the team then branches out toward other areas, including Florida.

There were three preferred walk-ons, making the class con-sist of 22 scholarship players.

A new data center for the university will be moved to a different spot on campus to help accommodate needed equipment.

The new building, ap-proved by the board of trust-ees in December, will be located between the Com-bined Services Building and the Engineering and Tech-nology Building, said Roger Rehm, vice president for In-formation Technology. The cost is not to exceed $5.4 million.

“The current space is not designed to be a data cen-ter,” Rehm said. “It is poorly

designed for both electrical and climate control systems and has too much vulner-ability to water damage.”

The data center is expect-ed to be completed by June of 2013. The selection of the contractor should happen sometime in July, said Steve Lawrence, vice president of Facilities Management.

The current location is in Foust Hall and “evolved” into a data center shortly af-ter the hall’s opening, Rehm said.

“The new facility will be better, because it is designed from the ground up to serve as a data center,” he said.

One of its main purposes will be to store the equip-ment with space for more to be added in the future.

“As such, it will be situated at a higher elevation than the present facility,” Rehm said. “And it is designed to

provide better and highly flexible power and climate control systems.”

The data center is expect-ed to hold servers and con-tain a large electrical service room with a backup genera-tor.

“It’s really just a utility building; people will only go there for maintenance,” Lawrence said.

Most of the time, the building is expected to be empty. As of now, the only thing finished is the design. When the rest of the design is done, a contractor will be

found, Lawrence said.The location for the new

data center was chosen in case an addition was need-ed, along with any extra equipment.

“It’s good to plan ahead,” Lawrence said. “Plus, it’s a good location.”

Construction is planned to commence in August, af-ter the design is finished, Lawrence said.

“We (just) want a more secure and reliable place,” Lawrence said.

“It’s interesting to see how they do their work,” she said. “It’s reassuring to know that it’s not that easy.”

Macomb senior Bridgette Crockett made sure to see part of every demonstra-tion. She said Rothshank’s spontaneous method of throwing his clay was par-ticularly interesting.

In the future, Crockett said she hopes to be an art therapist for children with special needs, which is why she takes an interest in demonstrations like these.

“I like the process of art,” she said. “It’s very healing.”

Rothshank’s spontaneous methods may be one rea-son he can support himself solely as an artist. He said he’s never working on just one piece. It takes him two to three weeks for each, and he generally has 20 to 30 pieces in the making.

He said he was happy to be invited to CMU for this workshop and felt like it

was a worthwhile chance to show his work style.

“All three of us worked with surface decora-tions,” Rothshank said. “We showed the students a broad spectrum of how to work with clay.”

Grand Rapids artist Is-rael Davis said the students could get a lot out of the demonstrations.

Davis demonstrated his work with screen print-ing. His workshop was no-table in part because of his homemade equipment. Davis said he models his equipment off of commer-cial equivalents. He said it’s not difficult for him, but he’s always been good at working with his hands.

Davis also said he was happy to be invited to share his knowledge.

“It looked like a great show,” Davis said. “To be asked to do it was a great honor.”

A new program at Central Michigan University has the goal of assisting students in applying for prestigious schol-arships.

The National Scholarship Program received funding from Provost Gary Shapiro’s office last year, and began gathering materials and print-ing brochures.

They also worked with one nominee, who failed to com-plete the process, said Profes-sor Phame Camarena, director of the National Scholarship Program and Honors Program.

This year the program has assisted a Rhodes Scholarship nominee, two Fulbright Pro-gram nominees and a Gold-water Scholarship nominee. Camarena said there will be a Truman Scholarship nominee as well.

“One of our key challenges is making sure faculty and stu-dents understand what these

scholarship programs are,” he said. “So really educating the university community is our top priority — it’s our first goal.”

The program is not exclu-sively for Honors students. Ca-marena said any high-achiev-ing student is eligible to utilize the program, and said many scholarship programs have a long-standing history at other universities.

He said it speaks to the im-proving strength of CMU’s campus that the Shapiro rec-ognizes the need to provide a program tailored to recruit high-achieving students and assist them in putting together a strong application.

“We’re a much stronger university than we were 20 or 30 years ago,” Camarena said. “We’re becoming a top uni-versity, and if we’re going to be in that same pool of schools, we should be doing the same things.”

New program aids students for prestigious awards

clay timeStudents learn from professional artist workshop Thursday

By Chad Mitchell | Staff Reporter

Three professional artists spent two days demonstrat-ing their techniques in the Drawing Clay Workshop for the first time in years.

Artists Malcolm Mobutu Smith, Justin Rothshank and Israel Davis each presented their own methods of creat-ing with clay Thursday in the North Art Studio. The three will also present today.

Central Michigan University Art Gallery Director Anne Gochenour said it wasn’t easy getting the event orga-nized, but it was well worth it.

A $6,000 grant from the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs, along with funds from the past few years of clay sales from the CMU Ceramics Society made the event possible, Gochenour said.

Mount Pleasant senior Meghan Borland said she was very excited to see the artists come to CMU.

“We’ve been trying to get professional artists to come for years,” Borland said. “This is a big deal.”

Some of the artists, including Israel Davis, brought tools they made themselves for their demonstrations. Borland said the handmade tools were part of what made the presentation so fascinating.

Help centers on campus designed to assist students in writing and math have seen a significant jump within the last year.

The Writing Center, with four locations on campus, added 2,000 sessions during the 2010-11 academic year, said Steven Bailey, assistant professor of composition and rhetoric and interim direc-tor of the Writing Center. Ses-sions do not necessarily mean separate students each time, as many students return mul-tiple times for help, he said.

The Math Assistance Cen-ter has also seen similar in-creases in attendance recent-ly. In previous semesters there were approximately 200 ses-sions per week, but they have since rose to 300 per week during the fall 2011 semester.

Math Assistance Center Director Reggie Becker said the growing popularity of the center is because math is a subject most students are re-quired to take, with some ma-jors requiring several math courses.

“We try and get tutors to take teachers’ perspectives and stress the difference be-tween teaching and telling,” Becker said. “The tutors give leading questions to help get them to an answer.”

Bailey said students are encouraged to visit the writ-ing center with assignments in any stage in the process for any class, genre or major.

“Writing is something that ... is a collaborative process in the sense of learning to be-come a better writer, and the Writing Center supplies that,” Bailey said.

More Central Michigan University students are using the credit/no credit option, but the number remains sig-nificantly less than more than a decade ago.

In 2010-11, 553 students chose to use the option, an increase from the 485 during 2009-10. The number, how-ever, has been on a steady decline since 2002-03, when the number was more than 2,300. When credit/no credit was introduced in 1994-95, 3,873 students took advan-tage of it, and it rose to 4,870 in 1995-96.

From 1995-96 to 1996-97, the number dropped from more than 4,800 students us-ing credit/no credit to more than 1,800. Registrar Karen Hutslar said she was sur-prised when she looked at those numbers and could not explain the drastic drop.

“The numbers have gone down as enrollment went up,” she said. “I would have expected them to rise as our student population has ris-en.”

Credit/no credit gives stu-dents an option to take a course and not worry about it affecting their grade point average. A grade of C or better gives credit and C- and below gives no credit, and Hutslar said it gives students a chance to explore classes outside their field of knowledge.

The controversial shows the in-fluence personal conviction re-garding the issue, however well-intentioned, has on Americans, and it is an example of politics interfering with a universally rec-ognized good cause.

The conflict boils down to a rule adopted by the foundation to sus-pend funding to any organization under formal investigation by a government body. Upon its inves-tigation by Florida Congressman Cliff Stearns, a staunch anti-abor-

tion advocate, the Komen Foun-dation immediately suspended funding of Planned Parenthood’s breast cancer screening program for low-income women.

The move appears to be a calcu-lated tactic by Komen’s Senior Vice President for Public Policy Karen Handel, a former Georgia guber-natorial candidate and anti-abor-tion campaigner. The intention of the inquiry policy was transparent enough that upon its adoption, Mollie Williams, Komen’s head public policy expert, resigned in

protest when the decision was made last December.

The Komen Foundation has done an incredible job of increas-ing breast cancer awareness and advocating for research and care.

The color pink itself, from rib-bons to yogurt lids to Major League Baseball bats, has become a recognized advocate for aware-ness and support.

Their accomplishments as a nonprofit deserve and regular-ly receive praise — all of which makes the Planned Parenthood controversy even more upsetting.

Though Planned Parenthood is indeed an organization that pro-vides abortion services at some clinics, cutting off funding for purely breast cancer prevention-related services because of that fact paints an extremely radical picture of their work.

According to 2009 data obtained by The Washington Post, abortion services made up only 3 percent of Planned Parenthood’s $11.4 million worth of provided servic-

es. Far ahead of abortion, cancer screening and prevention makes up 16 percent, statistics that clear-ly refute the notion that Planned Parenthood is an organization strictly focused on providing abor-tion services.

The organization pursued a pol-icy of appeasing those on one side of a divide and potentially irrecon-cilable political issue rather than practice its stated goal of advocat-ing for and treating breast cancer.

Breast cancer ultimately wounds and often destroys the lives and families of women on ei-ther side of the debate surround-ing abortion.

The Komen Foundation has made breast cancer an issue well-known to every American household, and now is the time to fund action designed to pre-vent and treat the illness it has publicized so cleverly. Giving in to the political maneuvering of a Pro-Life politician may be causing preventable deaths, and that’s simply unacceptable.

Winter?Spring?

anna Mcneill Staff Reporter

Tuesday it was a balmy 50 degrees Farenheit, where a few days before that, it was in the 30s with blustery snow.

I spend part of every day sitting and looking out at the the window wonder-ing what today’s weather is going to be, just wondering. It could start out dull, bleak, the sky covered in dreary clouds, then by mid-day the sun could break through and be blinding.

Michigan doesn’t know what it wants.When Michigan gets into one of its

“moods,” where one day it’s giving off wicked sunburn skies and the next hypothermia could set in with just a few seconds of exposure, people here react in strange ways.

Michiganders should be accustomed to temperature fluctuations by now, but apparently our bodies and brains don’t know how to keep up.

One day the population is bundled up in winter coats, fuzzy mittens, wool hats and snow boots, then the next those same people are wearing sweatshirts, while others seem to think they’re in the midst of the epic heat wave of the century.

From being bundled up to rocking the sweatshirt with the booty shorts and fuzzy boots, this is Michigan’s reality.

We deal with it, laughing off the fact that it happens to us and that we are victims of this mixed-weather crime.

Here are some possibilities of what one might see: men wear workout shorts and T-shirts while girls skimp on the clothing because the temperature rose by 20 degrees in one night, and in Michigan, that is looked at oddly for a moment then a head is shaken and the sight has been registered and accepted by the brain.

I sit back and giggle when the gust of wind blows between the campus buildings and the girls scream in chilled surprise.

Their thought could almost be heard, “What the heck? It is like spring and stuff. Why is this wind being cold?”

The reality of it is it’s winter and Michigan is messing with the masses by throwing a spring-time day out there in the freezing cold of late January.

We are an odd breed, Michiganders. We have grown thick-skinned, because that is how our weather has condi-tioned us. Hot then cold, cold then freezing, freezing to mild, then back to cold.

We know that when we walk outside and aren’t instantly chilled to the bone, that it is a good day to ride with the win-dows down, to bust out the motorcycle — heck, that it’s time to get our tan on.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not claim-ing innocence. Having been born and raised in Michigan, I participate in this weirdness as well.

I am that girl who travels to Texas over Spring Break and busts out her short shorts and tank tops when all the Texans are bundled up in sweatshirts and long johns.

It’s what our state has done to us. Let us embrace it and laugh at our own ridiculousness.

Welcome to Michigan, where the weather has a short attention span and we just try to keep up.

The developing controversy surrounding the Susan G. Komen Foundations’ decision last December, revealed this week,

to suspend funding of breast cancer screenings for low-income women at Planned Parenthood clinics once again reminds us of the seemingly irreconcilable differences between the so called “Pro Life” and “Pro Choice” movements.

KiM PaTiSHnoCK [CEnTral SQUarE]

People always talk about a defining moment in their life when they learned a lot about themselves and the people around them.

A moment where everything fell apart, eventually fell back together, and the important things in life became crystal clear.

I had never been that person. I had never had a moment like that, and I was beginning to think it wouldn’t ever happen — until Aug. 26, 2011 rolled around.

It started as a typical early-semester weekend, with nothing better to do in this town than wreak havoc on Main Street and try our best to avoid the cops. My best friend came up for the weekend and we party-hopped with friends for a while, until we decided to embrace what Main Street does best, and headed to a frat party. My friend’s mom had called earlier in the night, but neither of us was in any state to talk to our parents, so he ignored the call, put his phone in his pocket and didn’t look at it again. That was at 11 p.m.

At 1 a.m., he checked his phone and had missed calls like nobody’s busi-ness. He dialed his voicemail and heard a message that would change our lives forever. His little brother, Ryan, had been hit by a car, and it was bad. Really bad.

To make a long story short, we were rushed to Mott Children’s Hospital in Ann Arbor, where we learned that Ryan was in a coma, had numerous broken bones and had needed brain surgery already. Little did we know, eight more surgeries would be in Ryan’s future.

As we sat in the waiting room, I watched a mother fight to be strong during the hardest time of her life, an uncle and grandmother stare into space searching for answers, and a brother — my closest friend on this planet — try so hard to believe that things were going to be alright when there was a very real possibility they wouldn’t be. And as much as I wanted to help, to say or do something to fix everything, there was nothing I could do. Except be there.

In that moment, I understood what people were always talking about. Throughout the next four months of Ryan’s hospitalization, my small town came together like a family. I relied on people more than I ever had in the past and I learned to take each and every moment of life for what it’s worth.

Now that I’m the person sharing the story of a defining life moment, I want to leave people with one message. Appreciate the people in your life. Tell your mom you love her, spend time with your dad, and even if they piss you off, tell your siblings how much they mean to you, because in an instant, everything can change and you’d give anything in this world to rewind time.

I think Lee Brice got it right when he said “Never let your prayin’ knees get lazy, and love like crazy.”

Central Michigan Life should be ashamed of its Feb. 1 Bucket List. Prospective students and their parents will be pleased to know that CMU is a place where immoral and illegal activities are encouraged by the student me-dia.

A place where every student should No. 16: Run from the po-lice, a blatantly illegal act. Where

people of all faiths or creeds can No. 95: Get a “Jesus Dog” @ His House on Bellows, while being pressured to follow their faith. Who wouldn’t want to No. 67/68: Make out with a boy/girl from every Fraternity/Sorority, con-sidering the fact that STD rates at CMU are among the highest in the state? Even unpopular sug-gestions such as No. 69: Sit in a

lecture class that you are NOT TAKING, demonstrate that this publication has no respect for the academic integrity of the in-stitution. At least by pointing out the idiocy of some of the sugges-tions on this list, I can cross off No. 116.

Andrew BrownDelta College sophomore

We like to joke about Michigan only having two seasons, win-ter and construction, but if you drive often you know that our roads are in bad shape.

Over time this erosion of city streets and freeways causes wear and tear on vehicles that ends up costing drivers a lot of money.

We joke about the orange bar-rels, but the truth is, we need to

invest in fixing our roads, and we need to invest in putting Michigan’s construction work-ers back on the job. Fixing our crumbling infrastructure will make our state more attractive to new business, and it creates good-paying jobs right here at home.

We need to convince elected officials in Lansing to stop their

partisan antics and make this a priority. Actually, some bills are under consideration now there that would more realistically fund road and other infrastruc-ture construction and repair. This is way overdue. We need it ASAP.

Comments in response to “Ross says President Obama’s plea for universities to control tuition hikes does not affect CMU”

Michmediaperson, WednesdayThat last sentence of the story

sums up Obama’s lying time in of-fice.

Back in 2008 during the cam-paign, he said in Saginaw that anyone going into teaching, he’d give them a free college educa-tion. Well, where’s the money?

The reporter who did the story was a CMU grad. I think it was the Saginaw News or the Flint Jour-

nal. She said that’s what he said when I called her. Obama will say anything to get elected. Now to be fair, Gingrich isn’t much bet-ter when he’s telling NASA folks last week that we’re going to set up shop on the moon. The coun-try is broke. We don’t have the $$$ for the moon. Pandering for votes like Obama and Newt do, is wrong!

Colleges need to find ways to trim costs. Like George’s sal-ary. Like all presidential salaries. Shouldn’t be a penny more than the Governor’s salary. Eliminat-ing guest speakers who get paid

well. PC courses. PC depts. Hy-phenated-American depts and events. Duplication of depts. And, get faculty out of research and teaching more classes. You could get rid of half the faculty at all Michigan public schools and cut tuition in half. That’s what Obama should have said.

I mean his teleprompter!

Stupid Troll, WednesdayThe republicans in congress

make the laws. They didn’t sup-port any of his ideas. So maybe it’s we need their “lying time in office” to end too.

Kiwanis Club of Mt. Pleasant

2012

Kiwanis is... Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child, one community at a time. When you help a child, you are building a bridge between generations and toward the future. Your kindness, generosity and knowledge influence that childs life forever. Sometimes in great ways. But always in a lasting way. Kiwanis originated right in Detroit, Michigan in January 1915. The Mt. Pleasant Kiwanis Club was organized October 17, 1933 by local citizens just like you… the reader.

Kiwanis members are... Our local Mt. Pleasant Kiwanis members, also known as Kiwanians are made up of a diverse background from town. Our members work in the community, CMU, State of Michigan, local business owners and retired members of the community. But we all have one thing in common. We all volunteer. You can be a member who helps the children of this fine community of ours.

Kiwanians do What... They meet for lunch once a week for an hour. There’s a short business meeting. There’s a board of directors who meet once a month. We have 34 active members. Some of our members have been members for only a couple years. We also have members who have been members for 20 to 40 years. To see what we do outside of our club meeting, view a list of organizations we donate money to. You can also view the various fund raisers we host.

Be Our Guest Please consider coming to a luncheon, on us, of course, and see how much fun you could add to your life. Call Membership Chairman, Mike Crapo, for a lunch meeting. (989) 773-7353.

Where do we raise this money?We raise the money through the generous support we get from Community members and beyond.

Mt. Pleasant has three Major fundraisers

• newspaper sale • raffles - vacation tickets • rose sale The club and its members volunteer their time and go out into the Community and beyond and sell Roses, Raffle tickets and Newspapers during the Kiwanis year. Our total gross income from the three fundraisers this past year was $24,668.00.

shoes and boots ProjeCt There are over 7,000 children enrolled in the school districts located in Isabella County. A significant percentage of these children are from low income families who are either underemployed, working at entry level jobs without benefits, are headed up by a single parent, or are receiving social welfare assistance. For over 50 years our Kiwanis Club has provided shoes and boots for these children in an effort to mitigate the effects of low family income, to encourage good school attendance, and to promote health and safety. This project was initiated by Harold Stinson, a Kiwanian who was also a school social worker in the Mt. Pleasant schools. The need has increased dramatically over the past years. In 2004 the Club spent $700, while this year it has budgeted $3,000 for this project.

CoMMunity souP KitChen The Mt. Pleasant community, recognizing that there were persons in our community who were not able to meet their basic needs, including regular nourishing meals, established a Soup Kitchen through the cooperation of local churches, organizations and individuals. The Soup Kitchen has a minimal paid staff, but relies mainly on the use of community volunteers. The Kiwanis Club provides two members each week to serve on the food line. On the average, close to 100 persons are served each day. In addition the Club provides financial support and maintains a member on the Soup Kitchen Board of Directors.

MiChigan sPeCial olyMPiCs Carnival The summer games of the Michigan Special Olympics are held each year on the campus of Central Michigan University. Over 3,000 athletes participate. Since 1975, the Mt. Pleasant Kiwanis Club has sponsored a carnival for the entertainment of the athletes. Simple but enjoyable games are used. Many of the athletes have problems with motor coordination and muscle control. Others have impairment of sight, hearing or ambulation. The games in the carnival must allow for success and enjoyment for all these athletes. The Club provides the booths, prizes, and volunteers. Other Kiwanis Clubs from Michigan also participate.

On February 9, 2011 the Mt. Pleasant Kiwanis Club lost an active and dedicated Kiwanian. Dean was inducted into the Kiwanis Club of Mt. Pleasant in 1958 and remained an involved member and ambassador of Kiwanis for more than half of his 99 years. Dean served as Club President in 1960 and participated fully in Club activities. Dean’s family fondly recalls the many friendships made and events Dean experienced through his Kiwanis connections, particularly him working at his first Kiwanis pancake dinner fundraiser, flippin’ and grinnin’ at the griddle, a sight the family never before witnessed. After serving in the Army Air Corps as a flight instructor during World War II, Dean moved to Michigan where he began a long career in the oil and gas business. In addition to his Kiwanis Club involvement, Dean was active in the community, serving as a member of several city commissions and boards.Dean was one of a kind. In his later years, he did not allow his health issues interfere with his dedication to the values of Kiwanis nor his weekly Club meeting attendance. Dean’s service to youth, devotion to his family and community will be long remembered and appreciated.

A Helping HauntThis is the second year local businesswoman Kris Roethlisberger donated a total of $1,500 to the Young Kiwanians. Specifically, $1,000 to Circle K Club and $500 to Key Club. Kris raises the money through her “Haunted Yard” each Halloween. Kris and her husband, Mike, and a handful of others set up a haunted theme park in their backyard. Local families bring their young kids to the haunted yard to get “scared”. Families are asked to make any donation amount they like. The Circle K Club and Key Club members volunteer their time at the haunted yard and help Kris scare the kids. The Kiwanis Club of Mt. Pleasant is very appreciative of Kris for making this a great Fun Raiser for our young Kiwanians.

EaglE award – Dave Zamarron

Each year the Mt. Pleasant Area Chamber of Commerce recognizes 12 outstanding members of service clubs or organizations with an Eagle Award. This award honors individuals who soar above the rest and whose dedication and commitment to his or her organization is beyond expectations. Dave Zamarron was nominated by the Kiwanis Club and named as a 2011 Eagle Award recipient for his continuing and significant role in the organization of the annual Special Olympics Carnival that provides entertainment for the 3,000 plus Special Athletes participating in the Special Olympics on the Campus of Central Michigan University.

Fun Community Projects

Circle K at CMU Circle K is part of the Kiwanis family geared toward college/university student involvement. For the 2011-2012 university year, Circle K at CMU boasts a membership of 49 members. Circle K members participate in leadership development, service projects on a weekly basis, and social opportunities. Members attend leadership development activities on campus which include; Alpha Leadership Experience, Connections Conference, along with leadership conferences sponsored by the Michigan District of Circle K International. CMU Circle K has sponsored leadership training days which include the CMU rock wall.

The main focus of CMU Circle K is service and volunteerism. Each week, members choose from a variety of volunteer events scheduled by the Service Committee. Organizations that use Circle K for volunteering are the Red Cross Mobile Food Pantry, sponsored by Community Compassion Network, the animal shelter, the Isabella Community Soup Kitchen, the Red Cross, and the annual “Haunted Yard”.

Fund raising during the year helps support the annual Kids Against Hunger food packaging. CMU Circle K purchases the ingredients to make a vitamin-fortified, rice-soy food package that feeds children in the local area, children in natural disaster areas, and in third world countries. The Kiwanis family gathers to package the meals along with other CMU and Mt. Pleasant students attending. 10,000 to 20,000 meals are packages within a few hours on a Saturday morning in the spring.

CMU students interested in volunteering can see how Circle K helps the community and the world by attending a meeting on Monday at 8:00 p.m. in Powers Hall 136.

Key Club Key Club is the high school component of the Kiwanis Family. “Because We Care” is the MPHS Key Club motto. The organization is a student led organization. MPHS Key Club provides its 100 plus members with opportunities to build character, develop leadership, and to provide service to the community.

MPHS Key Club has service projects in both at school functions and in community activities. The members provide humble manpower to help school events run smoothly, including helping at sporting events and at new student freshman orientation. In the community, Key Club members help at the “Haunted Yard”, distributing food for the mobile food pantry, ringing bells for the Salvation Army, working for “Toys for Tots”, and setting up at the Disability Awareness Fair.

Key Club members meet briefly each week at 7:15 at MPHS. Key Clubbers use social media to keep in contact and to arrange service projects and social events. Executive board members use time efficiently for a small amount of time to communicate and manage the business of the club.

Builders Club Sacred Heart Academy Builders Club is a student-led service organization. Builders Club, as part of the Kiwanis family, is the largest service organization for middle school students. SHA Builders were established in 2009/2010 school year.

Service leadership is the prime motivation for SHA Builders. Service leadership is the next step beyond service learning. Once a young person fully understands the concept of learning by helping others, he or she begins to grow personally as a leader. Opportunities are available to develop this leadership, improve self esteem, increase civic engagement, and learn life skills through service work.

Activities in which SHA Builders participate are “Miles for Miracles”, UNICEF, Christmas caroling and making Christmas cards for nursing home residents, Toys for Tots, collecting school items and clothing for the poor in the Dominican Republic, volunteering with the other Kiwanis Family in “Kids Against Hunger” packaging and many more events at Sacred Heart Academy. Servant Leadership is being a servant first and then you want to serve even more.

Kiwanis Kids The youngest club of the Kiwanis Family is Kiwanis Kids. Morey Charter Academy K-Kids is a service club for elementary students. Members of the CMU Circle K along with a member of the Mt. Pleasant Kiwanis Club, lead the meetings of the K-Kids. Members are taught core values such as caring, responsibility, respect, along with self esteem programs.

Programs are broken into three components: service, character education, and academic achievement.

The lessons of leadership and self development are introduced through learning to plan, setting goals, working with others, volunteering in the schools, and celebrating successes.

The goal of this program is to assist all students in becoming good writers, active readers, creative thinkers, and resourceful learners by providing them with their own personal dictionary. The dictionaries are a gift to each student to use at school and at home for years to come. Educators see third grade as the dividing line between learning to read and reading to learn. Club members, including K.C. the Kangaroo, have made it a priority to distribute dictionaries to our local schoolchildren for the past three years and look forward to continuing this project for years to come. In 2011 we distributed 584 dictionaries to the following schools: Mt. Pleasant Schools (Ganiard, Pullen, Vowles), Sacred Heart Academy, St. Joseph the Worker, Beal City Public, Morey Charter Academy, Renaissance Academy, Shepherd Public, Weidman Public, and Winn

Three Pi Kappa Phi broth-ers will embark on a philan-thropic cross-country jour-ney from San Francisco to Washington D.C. this sum-mer.

This is the 25th year that Push America, an advocacy organization, will host the Journey of Hope. The event involves Pi Kappa Phi mem-bers traveling in groups of road crews and cyclists to raise awareness for those with disabilities.

The students had differ-ent reactions when they first heard about the program.

“I jumped on the chance right away,” said Farm-ington Hills senior Spen-cer Haworth in an email. “I want to raise awareness for people with disabilities because of my mother and twin brother who suffer from physical and mental diseases. I want to give my time and effort to people who need it much more than I do.”

While Haworth decided to participate because of fami-ly, his Pi Kappa Phi brothers had their own reasons for wanting to join the journey.

“I went to a conference and there was a presenta-tion about Journey of Hope and I talked to one of the brothers (who) had attend-ed. I would have signed up right away if I would have had Wi-Fi,” said Dearborn Heights junior Keith Jones in an email. “I’ve never done something like this before, so I want to get the experience on what it’s like to work with people and to understand the abilities they really have.”

Rockwood sophomore Jeremy Osborne said he de-cided to get involved after

hearing about the experi-ences of other Pi Kappa Phi members.

“I want to change the lives of people with disabilities and overall raise awareness for the everyday problems he or she may face,” he said in an email. “Just the ability to see everyone smile and forget about what their dis-ability may be for an hour or a whole day is amazing, and to leave them with a smile on their face is my main goal throughout the trip.”

Although the three stu-dents won’t be cycling, they will assist as part of the road crew.

“The road crew is essen-tially the people (who) will communicate with spon-sors, set up events, places to sleep, finance the trip and make sure the bikers are al-ways healthy and on-route when they are biking,” Jones said. “We make sure we go from point A to point B in one piece.”

The three agreed they are participating to improve their lives by helping others,

and they have also started raising awareness to friends and acquaintances in the community.

“I think that this event is a wonderful way to raise awareness about disabili-ties, not only to the people that they will encounter along the way, but for peo-ple like me who previously had no knowledge of this event or what they stood for, and now I am going to contribute what I can and keep up with their updates along the way,” said Port Huron senior McKenzie Bade, who is friends with the three.

They are hoping for the support of the community as they fundraise to make this adventure possible.

“I am very proud of them and I know that they will make a difference in a lot of people’s lives,” said Pi Kap-pa Phi Vice President and Lapeer junior Radu Fen-eser. “They are all great guys (who) love giving back.”

Anne Miller, the program co-ordinator, said there is a careful screening process to select the university nominees.

“Not everyone who submits a pre-application is a CMU nomi-nee,” she said. “They are not wasting time, but maybe they’re not the nominee this year, but maybe next year with a little bit of guidance from faculty and (Camarena).”

The screening process is de-signed to ensure the nominee selected will have the commit-ment and ability to put together a strong application, said Ca-marena.

Miller said the program has teamed up with the Writing Center with good results.

She said after a nominee has been selected, the actual appli-cation process is extensive and requires a large effort from the student, faculty members and the National Scholarship Pro-gram.

Camarena said initial meet-ings with students often result in the student deciding for him-self or herself not to attempt to secure the nomination, because of the low chance of getting the scholarship and the amount of work involved in building a strong application.

“There’s a misperception on the part of students who first call,” Camarena said. “You’re not just going to type in a couple of short answers. The essay you write for this will be the best es-say you’ve ever written in your college career, and it will be ed-ited more times than anything

you’ve ever written in your col-lege career.”

Camarena also stressed these scholarships are more than awards or tuition vouchers, and a student should not think of it that simply. He said they are scholarship programs that come with the expectation that a student will continue leader-ship in their community, disci-pline and the world. They also provide a network of program alumni.

“That’s part of what makes them so prestigious and com-petitive, because whoever’s the recipient of these things is, for the rest of their career, identified as a Udall scholar, for example, and is part of a network of in-dividuals who they can access,” Camarena said.

The first thing Matthew Weigl does when he leaves the bar with his friends is go look for a place to eat.

Many restaurants in Mount Pleasant stay open late, even 24 hours, to satisfy the late-night hunger of Weigl and other cus-tomers.

“When you’re coming from the bar at 2 a.m., you’re looking for something to eat,” the Sagi-naw junior said. “Everyone has the munchies at 2 a.m.”

Arby’s, 1224 S. Mission St, is open until 3 a.m., extending their hours a few years ago to meet demands. Shift Manager Raymond Resetz said the res-taurant’s peak hours are around lunchtime and later at night.

Resetz said Arby’s has thought about leaving the business open 24 hours, but managers believe it wouldn’t be worth it.

“We’ve talked about it, but nothing has been done,” he said. “We just wouldn’t get the business after 3 a.m.”

And with business doing well, Resetz said Arby’s finds no threat from other local restau-rants staying open 24 hours.

Lil’ Chef, 1720 S. Mission St., opened in 1993 and has been open 24 hours for as long as server Lauren Bottoff can re-member, who said the peak hours for the business are week-end mornings.

“We get most of our business from the church-goers on Sun-day mornings, but we do get a lot of business once the bars close,” the Ann Arbor senior

said. “Lil’ Chef has been open a long time, so we’re doing some-thing right.”

Menna’s Joint, 1418 S. Mis-sion St., is open Sunday through Wednesday until 3 a.m. and Thursday through Saturday un-til 4 a.m.

Crew member Jenna Hogle said the restaurant has no de-sire to extend their hours and stay open 24 hours, because the business after 4 a.m. wouldn’t be worth it.

The restaurant stays busy throughout the day with the peak hour of 2:30 a.m.

“We get a lot of the bar crowd,” Hogle said. “A lot of people come strolling in once O’Kelly’s closes. We’ve had to call cabs for people (who) fall asleep in the booths.”

Not all departments have this option for majors. Chemistry, biology, journalism and market-ing are among the departments that do not allow it, Hutslar said.

“This policy was in place be-fore I came here,” Hutslar said. “From what I heard, they want-ed to have this grading option, and it would really enable stu-dents to maybe explore and take courses and not have this fear of getting a bad grade and impact their GPA.”

Hutslar said students today are not finding the option as ap-pealing.

“If a students gets a D, it’s (no credit),” she said. “Sure, a D is a bad grade, but at least they re-ceive credit for the letter grade.”

West Branch senior Sarah

Fox is taking her first credit/no credit class and said she con-templated taking two, but was advised against it. Fox said cred-it/no credit isn’t an option many students know about. When she talked to other students in her classes, she said they were surprised to hear about it and asked her how it worked.

“I knew I had to take 18 cred-its and I thought maybe I should utilize that so I wouldn’t be to overwhelmed my final semes-ter,” she said.

Michelle Howard, director of academic advising and as-sistance, said academic advis-ers are reporting the credit/no credit grade option and related questions are more common among students who have been here for several semesters.

“Graduating seniors who elect credit/no credit during their last semester need to be careful that

the C grade or higher is earned, or they risk receiving no credit for a required class for graduation,” Howard said. “It is important that students electing the credit/no credit option take the class seriously, as grades lower than C will result in no credit.”

Fox, a psychology major, said she wanted to take a class topic she didn’t know much about that would challenge her intel-lectually and fit into her sched-ule. Now she realizes all that is required and slacking off is tough to do.

“I’ve never gotten below a B- in college ever, so I thought this option wouldn’t be a big deal,” she said. “I definitely need to stay on top of this class, because if I get (no credit) and don’t grad-uate, that will definitely be a big issue for me.”

Houghton Lake senior Jus-tin Wigard said he uses the Writing Center about once a year, but it is a great help.

“My visits have helped me rationalize my own writing,” Wigard said. “The tutor will, after a swell introduction, have you read off your first few pages of your writing. This forces you to speak aloud your thoughts, and gives you a better sense of what phrases sound odd, what phrases you repeat, etc.”

Other students who at-tend the center feel the same way, according to surveys the Writing Center regularly dis-tributes. During the 2010-11 academic year, 98.3 percent of students ranked their overall

experience with the Writing Center to be excellent or good.

“I did not learn to write by locking myself in a room,” Bailey said. “I learned from other writers.”

Holt sophomore Devan Walworth has been to the Math Assistance Center sev-eral times in the past, but said she loved her experience there and said she is likely to go more frequently in the future.

“The tutors were great,” Wal-worth said. “They have teach-ers there too, so the areas are fully covered. I even talked to another (calculus) teacher to-day (who) helped me a lot.”

Grand Ledge freshman Kaiti Blundy visits the Math As-sistance Center about once a week, and said the extra assis-tance really helps her with her math work.

“Usually my visits are very

helpful and can help me un-derstand the material better than in class, because I get personal attention and a new perspective or explanation of the material,” Blundy said.

The help is apparent in stu-dents who attend the Math Assistance Center, Becker said.

“It appears that people who come to (the) math center have a lower DEW (Drop, Exit, Withdrawal) rate than those who don’t attend,” he said.

Walworth said she looks forward to attending in the fu-ture, as her math classes con-tinue to get more difficult.

“It was a relaxing environ-ment with people (who) really helped me understand the section that I was covering,” she said.

By Matt ThompsonSports Editor

Dan Enos walked into the Indoor Athletic Center just after 7 a.m. Wednesday and went straight to the fax ma-chine surrounded by his as-sistants.

It was national signing day for the head football coach, and all the coaches were alert early ensuring a solid fresh-men class for next year.

“I can never sleep very good before signing day,” offensive coordinator Mike Cummings said to a co-worker while waiting for faxes from recruits to come in. “It’s like Christmas time.”

A total of 21 high school athletes faxed in their signed letters of intent to play for Central Michigan as scholar-ship players. That means an additional 25 players will join the team. For coaches it can be difficult to trust 18-year old kids’ promises to come before they officially sign.

“You never know,” Enos said. “If you’re going to have a situation (player decommits) on signing day, there’s nor-mally events that lead up to it on signing day to give you a clue that it’ll happen.”

Enos also gets worried a big-ger school will try to “poach” a recruit in late in the process.

“I feel that if I was at a Big Ten school I would’ve recruit-ed (players from this class),” Enos said. “I’m always worried if someone swoops down late. You put all the time into them, it would’ve been very disap-pointing.”

For Enos, his morning start-ed at 5:30 a.m., although he came in a few minutes after 7 a.m. because it was his turn to take the kids to school. But during the drive he was get-ting calls from recruits and as-sistant coaches.

“To coaches it’s like an-other game day,” said Ath-letics Director Dave Heeke.

“You win or lose.”Defensive coordinator Joe

Tumpkin said he was less stressful because they had the commitments for so long, and felt very confident in the kids’ commitments. Each re-cruit has an assistant coach assigned to recruiting him. Those coaches called Sun-day night, Monday night and Tuesday night just confirming there would be no problems Wednesday morning sending in the ever-important fax.

Either the fax comes in first or the players call their assistant coaches who con-gratulate them or tell them they need to re-send the fax becaues of errors. Then Enos talks to the recruit.

“I always tell them to enjoy the day and enjoy the mo-ment,” Enos said. “Not many people can say they signed a Division I scholarship to play football, they should be proud and enjoy the day. But starting tomorrow, better get to work.”

Shortly after 10 a.m. when the final fax came through, the coaches piled in Enos’ of-fice to watch a highlight film of the newest Chippewas.

“I enjoy doing that, go-ing through highlight video,” Enos said. “Getting excited about what this young man could be. Trying to figure out which one will be Titus Davis, freshman All-American (last year). I’d like to think there’s one this year.”

That time was also spent already working toward next year’s recruits.

“We got calls from guys we’ve already offered for next year,” said the head coach en-tering his third season. “We’re already moving. We’ve been offering guys today and say-ing ‘Hey in a year from today where are you going to be go-ing? We want to be on your list.’”

The hollers from coaches watching the highlights could be heard down the hall in the IAC. Coaches continued to down coffee throughout the morning and joke with each other while paying attention to what other teams’ recruit-

ing classes looked like.With confidence in the com-

mitments from the recruits, coaches were loose through-out the morning. From Enos poking fun at an assistant who watches Jersey Shore to telling Titus Davis he’ll be redshirted next season just to continue to have to do the early morning workouts, the comedy show did not stop.

“At Cincinnati one year we had a morning workout be-fore signing day and were late getting to the fax machine,” Enos recalled. “The machine didn’t even have paper in it, and no one was there so kids couldn’t send in their fax.”

He did say it turned out to be a great class. But every school around the country has to sit patiently around the fax machine and rely on old technology that easily fails. Several players called with problems working with the fax machine at their high schools.

“One of dads asked me why don’t they scan a document then email it,” Enos said. “I don’t know, good question. We’re still running around with a fax machine, if it broke we should have another one standby. All the work and time and money you put in these guys and your wait-ing on a fax? Maybe that’ll change someday.”

The days and nights spent recruiting these players are what make the coaches so stressful if they will come. Enos says the day is more of a banquet and celebration to recruiting. He gives his staff four days off after signing day to “reconnect and introduce themselves to their families.”

“The recruiting process is like a bunch of game days,” Enos said. “You recruit against other schools, there’s intensity there and competition there. We have to be on, if you have one bad meeting or the energy level is not there, you can lose them. We’re on that emotional rollercoaster.

“You’re exhausted after a day recruiting.”

He was “regrouping,” fired after three seasons as head football coach from then-Divi-sion II North Carolina Central.

So Mose Rison got in contact with an old friend, Plas Presnell, director of football operations at Central Michigan. It was last October, and the Chippe-was were traveling to Raleigh, N.C., a three-hour jaunt from his home in Charlotte, to play North Carolina State.

Rison, a standout running back and former assistant coach at CMU, had not gotten a chance to see his alma mater play during the season.

Three hours later, following CMU’s 38-24 loss, despite post-ing 427 yards of offense, Rison was impressed with what he saw.

“Who was that guy?,” Rison asked Presnell, referring to re-ceiver Courtney Williams, who made three catches for 63 yards and a touchdown.

“Who was that guy?,” Rison said, referring to Titus Davis, who had one catch for 50 yards.

“Those kids are freshmen,” Presenell replied.

“You got to be kidding me,” Rison exclaimed, “Freshmen?”

Three months later, Rison was out of the contract that prevented him from coaching during the 2011 year. Now he’s back at CMU, named wide re-ceivers coach Wednesday.

Rison, a Flint native and cousin of former NFL standout receiver Andre Rison, played football at CMU from 1974 to 1977, a part of the Chippewas’ 1974 Division II national cham-pionship team.

As a running back, he rushed for 2,838 yards during four sea-sons. In 1977, as a senior, Rison was named first-team All-Mid-American Conference after rushing for more than 1,241 yards and 12 touchdowns.

“He was a great player here,” Enos said. “He’s got a ton of ex-perience, a lot of knowledge, and he’ll be able to recruit the state, which we’ve made a huge priority for this football pro-gram. He’s an outstanding wide receivers coach, and we’re very blessed and thankful to have Mose with us.”

After graduating from CMU with a bachelor’s degree in 1978, Rison became the pro-gram’s wide receivers coach and special teams coordina-tor in 1981, a position he held through the 1988 season. From there, he went to Navy (1989-90), Rutgers (1991-95) and Stanford (1996-2001) before joining the staff of the New York Jets for the 2002 and 2003 sea-sons, coaching receivers along the way.

The first thing he plans to do is develop a one-on-one rela-tionship with the receivers.

“If you want your players to play at a high level, and do the things you ask them to do, you have to have the relationship,” Rison said. “It was important for me to have that relation-ship with Laverneous Coles and Santana Moss and Wayne Chrebet and get those guys to trust what I was doing. The Xs and Os don’t change much. When you a run a curl route with the New York Jets, you run a curl route with Central Michi-gan.”

Central Michigan football head coach Dan Enos introduced 25 new players to the program Wednesday afternoon at McGuirk Arena.

Former star returns to coach

The inside-out approach head coach Dan Enos talked about during signing day Wednesday inside the media room of McGuirk Arena is the perfect plan for success.

That approach means hav-ing a solid offensive and defen-sive line to find success.

If a quarterback has time, the team usually has success. When the quarterback doesn’t have time, the team suffers.

Toledo, Ball State and North-ern Illinois were the top-three teams in sacks against in the Mid-American Conference. The Rockets went 7-1 in the MAC, the Cardinals went 4-4

and the Huskies went 7-1, win-ning the MAC Championship.

The New York Giants and New England Patriots rank sixth and ninth in the NFL in sacks allowed during the regular season. Protecting the quarterback does not always guarantee success because the Buffalo Bills were No. 1 in the NFL in sacks allowed, but it can’t hurt to keep the quarter-back safe.

Seven of the top 12 NFL teams in recording sacks made it to the playoffs.

Enos went out and executed his philosophy by adding nine offensive/defensive linemen.

It gets better.He went inside and built the

trenches, but also went out and addressed areas of need.

Enos realized the second-ary personnel wasn’t where it needed to be for success in the MAC.

He went out and signed 13 new defensive recruits – five of which are defensive backs

and two that most likely will convert over to the position – knowing that his offensive per-sonnel is more advanced than the defense.

Enos said in the press confer-ence that people told him that you need to outscore oppo-nents in the MAC to win games.

He said he didn’t believe it, and that there can be winning as a result of good defense and that’s what his team plans to do.

Enos gets it.The starting job at the quar-

terback position is Ryan Rad-cliff’s to lose. With time, I think he can have a better season. Radcliff, combined with a solid rushing attack and playmaker wide receivers, can be a potent offense.

That side of the ball can com-pete, but the defense couldn’t.

With the recruits from last season and this one, the Chip-pewas should improve.

Enos for president?Not quite, but the plan is set,

from the inside-out.

Wednesday night was rough for the Central Michigan wom-en’s basketball team from start to finish as the team lost to Mi-ami (Ohio) 79-57.

The RedHawks (17-5, 7-2 MAC) jumped out to an early 11-0 lead behind two 3-point-ers from senior guard Maggie Boyer.

Miami did not slow down from behind the arc hitting nine 3-points. The RedHawks were 43 percent from three.

“When you have shooters like that it’s tough to catch up,” said CMU head coach Sue Guevara.

The Chippewas (12-11, 4-5 MAC) had plenty of open looks, and after trailing by 20 points in the first half they cut the lead to 11 points with 3:08 left in the half.

But they could not get any shots to fall while the RedHawks, true to form, hit back-to-back 3-pointers to end the half.

CMU would never cut the gap back to 11 points as MU ran away with the game in the sec-ond half.

“When you’re frustrated on the offensive end you need to

take it out on the defensive end, and that was probably one of the most embarrassing things,” Guevara said. “They pushed the ball down our throats, and I think it was because we weren’t getting back.”

Sophomore forward Taylor Johnson led the team in scor-ing and rebounds with 13 points and seven boards. She also got in foul trouble, and with the rest of the team struggling offen-sively it put the burden on the bench.

Junior guard Brandie Baker, in her second game since return-ing from an injury, scored 11 points on three 3-pointers and had six rebounds.

“Until we find someone who can consistently score for us we’re going to be in big trouble,” Guevara said. “Our energy level was low … so you bring in some subs and it didn’t get any better.”

The Chippewas will welcome back freshmen guards Crystal Bradford and Jessica Green and freshmen forward Jas’Mine Brac-ey after serving their two-game suspensions this weekend.

CMU hopes getting back its top three scorers on the team can not only find some consis-tent scoring, but will be able to

put last week’s incident behind them.

“Has it been easy no, every-where I go the first thing people do is put their fists up,” Guevara said. “That’s tough ... let’s let it go and move on.”

CMU will look to get off its two-game skid Friday when it travels to Akron.

The Central Michigan wrestling team will leave Mount Pleasant and an un-impressive month behind to wrestle at George Ma-son and Old Dominion this weekend.

The No. 22 Chippewas hit a cold streak, losing three of five duals after starting 10-2.

Their three losses were all against top-15 teams.

“I think sometimes evalu-ating things has a lot to do with the level of competi-tion, not necessarily the outcomes,” head coach Tom Borrelli said. “We had some disappointing losses toward the end of the month, but overall we got better.”

The road will not be any easier in February.

Some of the best teams in the U.S. are competing in the National Duals after this weekend’s set against two Colonial Athletic Associa-

tion members.It will be no pushover 3

p.m. Sunday at Norfolk, Va., when CMU faces No. 25 Old Dominion. Last year the Monarchs were two points away from beating CMU.

They have one ranked wrestler, and three on the cusp of the top-20 accord-ing to wrestlingreport.com.

George Mason should be an easier test. The Patri-ots only have one wrestler with more than 12 wins. The Chippewas have five. They face off at 7:30 p.m. Satur-day in Washington, D.C.

CMU has never lost to either team. They are 4-0 against Old Dominion and have not wrestled GMU be-fore.

TWO END JANUARY UNDEFEATED

Donnie Corby and Mike Ottinger were the only Chippewas that came out of the month of January un-scathed with a combined record of 9-0.

“They’ve been practicing hard,” Borrelli said. “When you’re making those sacri-fices and you’re doing the things you’re supposed to be doing in practice, then

you feel like you deserve to be successful in competi-tion and you carry that onto the mat with you.”

Both have faced their own obstacles this season. Ottinger is in his first year of collegiate wrestling and Corby was hampered by a foot injury.

“I think I’ve performed well in the last month, but the most important time is coming up, so I got to be ready for that,” Ottinger said. “I want to win the (Na-tionals), it’s going to be a tough task to do that, and also All-American isn’t go-ing to be easy either, but those are my goals.”

Borrelli used the words “spark” and “catalyst” to de-scribe Ottinger.

“Whenever a freshman can go out and perform the way he’s performed it can inspire and motivate every-one else,” Borrelli said.

Corby and Ottinger will be challenged this week-end against two of ODU’s top three wrestlers in 157-pound John Nichol-son (21-5) and 165-pound Tristan Warner (23-11).
